DWQA Questions › Tag: hypnotismFilter:AllOpenResolvedClosedUnansweredSort byViewsAnswersVotesThe questions for this show are derived from the life and work of the late hypnotist and prolific metaphysical author Dick Sutphen. Sutphen’s last book published in 2019, one year before his death at age 83, was titled Wisdom Erases Karma. There is no doubt that if Sutphen were to sum up his storied life in just three words, they would be “Wisdom Erases Karma.” These words were engraved on this tombstone, and the final sentence of his final book reads, “From my early days, I recognized that my life was about finding the wisdom to erase my karma.” What is Creator’s perspective on the phrase “Wisdom Erases Karma?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma202 views0 answers0 votesSutphen’s last wife before he died, Roberta Sutphen, is a gifted psychic medium. Like many gifted psychics, Roberta can communicate with her spirit guides readily. One day Roberta was frustrated and asked her principal guide, Lily, why she seems to get instant karma while some people they knew seemed to face no consequences at all? Lily told her there is a group of people who do not abide by the Law of Karma as we know it. … that there are two types of karma: those on the Karmic Wheel of Love and those on the Karmic Wheel of Fear. The laws are completely opposite. Every thought, intent, and desire for those on the Karmic Wheel of Love comes from God and shine in the light—the opposite is true for the Wheel of Fear. People on the Karmic Wheel of Fear are a collective mass that are earthbound and controlled by the Kingdom of Darkness. Can Creator tell us if this is true? Are there “two types of karma?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma211 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote more about Roberta’s guide’s response, ” … (people on the Karmic Wheel of Fear) are the psychopaths, sociopaths and narcissists in your life … They are not individuals.” Dick Sutphen asked, “What does that mean?” Roberta’s guide, Lily, responded, “They don’t reincarnate like we do. They don’t go through the Pre Birth Planning. You might think you are incarnating with the same dark soul, but they are not souls. The individual you think you are going another round with will have the same energetic make-up, but they are not individuals and cannot reincarnate.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma231 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote yet more of Roberta’s guide’s response, “We were both curious about how dark souls end up on Earth. Lily said the Kingdom of Darkness believes they control birth and death of the mass, but that’s not entirely true. There is a group called the Master Architects of Reincarnation. Think of these Architects as Air Traffic Controllers. Their work is vital. There’s almost as many of them surrounding the Earth as there are humans. They only interact with spirits, such as your guides and masters. They are in control of the Earth’s balance, or karma, and help direct pre-destined events.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma222 views0 answers0 votesSutphen came up with five basic categories of Karma. 1. Balancing Karma, which is mechanical cause and effect, such as not being able to conceive a child because of child neglect in a past life. 2. Physical Karma, which is the misuse of a body in one life, so the appropriate affliction is created in a later life, such as being overweight because of starvation in a previous life. 3. False Fear Karma is from a traumatic past-life incident that generates fear that is no longer valid in the current context of your current life. 4. False Guilt Karma from taking on responsibility or blame for a past-life incident for which you are truly blameless. 5. Developed Ability or Awareness Karma, such as musical talent. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma202 views0 answers0 votesSutphen was convinced there was a Universal Law: The Law of Fearful Confrontation, “If you fear doing something, and yet have the courage to do it anyway, you will soon do a mental flip-flop and may even become addicted to doing it.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma219 views0 answers0 votesSutphen wrote about hypnotizing a woman with fibromyalgia which caused constant physical pain. He directed her back to the real cause of her pain. She began to describe her hard life as a Christian nun. She resided in a tiny cell and suffered physically. She said, “Christ suffered for us, so we must suffer for him as well.” She then said under hypnosis, “The physical pain began about the time I decided to devote my current hypnosis practice to Christ Consciousness work.” Sutphen explains, “Somehow her unconscious mind ‘connected’ the past-life suffering for Christ to a need to suffer doing similar work today.” Sutphen directed her to release the pain and she was fully recovered upon awakening. Can Creator comment on this?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma219 views0 answers0 votesA friend of mine in the 1980s told me she had learned that Sutphen was kidnapped by federal authorities and flown to an east coast facility for interrogation. They asked him what he thought he was doing, and he said, “Teaching people how to think.” They told him to stop if he knew what was good for him. “We think for them,” he was reputedly told. In his last book, Sutphen said this only, “My heroes were all willing to speak out and act in response to what they believed. They have certainly influenced the way I communicate. They got me into trouble with the establishment on many occasions.” Was he hinting about what my friend shared with me? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma191 views0 answers0 votesSutphen’s last book, his memoir of 80 years, was in fact a summation of every important lesson that he learned in his highly adventurous and creative life. He helped millions of people and certainly earned more good karma than bad. That said, the one thing notably missing from his impressive collection of “lessons learned,” was the concept of “partnership with the divine and Creator.” There were hints here and there of prayer practice, but it appeared more hit and miss, and certainly did not rise to any kind of prominence in his many decades as a noted spiritual teacher and role model. How could he, and so many other advanced souls like him, have not been able to embrace this most important insight?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma180 views0 answers0 votesBoth Sutphen and his good friend, Richard Bach, author of the 1970s surprise bestseller, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, had their life savings and even copyrights on all their intellectual property stolen from them. The two thefts were not otherwise related. Both were left absolutely destitute. Bach’s manager stole his, and in 2011 some hacker drained Sutphen’s bank accounts, transferred his copyrights, and wiped out all the master copies of his life’s work. It took three years of lawsuits just to get his copyrights back, but everything else was gone. Can Creator share if Empowered Prayer and/or the Lightworker Healing Protocol could have prevented these evil attacks and tragedy that neither man fully recovered from?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Karma197 views0 answers0 votesIn a recent radio show on Academic Gatekeeping, Creator shared this, “The reality is the biggest part of the mind is unreachable to conscious awareness or even ordinary hypnotic trance procedures.” Can Creator expand on the use of the word “ordinary” in this context? Dr. Milton H. Erickson was no “ordinary” hypnotist. Did ANY of his techniques and methodologies reach and/or influence the deep subconscious, even though he certainly had no complete appreciation of the true reality and nature of what it was he was interacting with?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Subconscious Mind197 views0 answers0 votesMilton Erickson spent a day in 1950 at the home of Aldous Huxley. Huxley is the celebrated author of A Brave New World. Huxley did a form of self-hypnosis he called “Deep Reflection.” On that day Erickson and Huxley did some remarkable consciousness explorations. The two men had agreed to jointly publish a collaborative work on their findings. A decade passed, and Erickson was looking to bring the collaborative project to fruition when disaster struck. Huxley lost his home and all his notes and manuscripts in the great Bel-Air, California fire of 1961. Afterward, Huxley informed Erickson that he would not resume their collaboration—the loss was too great. What’s the story behind this disaster, and was Huxley specifically targeted with a backlash for his life’s work?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Subconscious Mind209 views0 answers0 votesThe word “somnambulist” is the label for sleepwalkers. Erickson and other hypnotists use the word to also describe a person who enters a trance state from which they emerge with full amnesia (a total forgetting) of the trance, and everything that occurred during it, just like sleepwalkers when they awaken. Can Creator share with us what’s behind sleepwalking and why it affects some people but not others?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Subconscious Mind210 views0 answers0 votesSome people even go into a somnambulistic trance when driving and report that hours can pass by without their conscious awareness or any recollection of the drive itself. Yet they safely reach their destination, as if by “magic.” The other day, Brian was driving his daughter home and engaged in a conversation with her. Suddenly he found himself on a familiar street going in a direction away from his destination. Brian realized he had no recollection of making the necessary right-hand turn to get on that street. He had a full amnesia of it. This was the first time in his entire life, that he vividly experienced this phenomenon with full recognition of the implications. Was this orchestrated to happen? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Subconscious Mind200 views0 answers0 votesIt appears the conscious or “awake” mind can focus on only one task at a time. For instance, the conscious mind cannot read a book and do a counting exercise at the same time. Yet when hypnotized to the somnambulistic level (the level that results in amnesia upon awakening), this ability to multitask has been readily demonstrated. Can Creator explain why this is so, and what levels of the mind are participating?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Subconscious Mind193 views0 answers0 votes
